Bypass Shutters For Sliding In Orlando
The more popular of the two sliding door shutter builds is the bypass configuration. In this setup, multiple shutter panels slide on a track mounted above your sliding door. The panels are offset so the panels slide over each other for easy operation of the door. Or if the sliding door has room to the side, the track can extend past the door to let the shutter completely slide away from the door.

As the name suggests, bifold shutters for sliding glass doors are ones that fold. Instead of two large, solid panels that slide on a track, bifold shutters are separated into smaller panels that fold into each other, clearing the path in front of your door.
